A commercially available, hand-held chemical vapor detector was modified to detect gram-positive Bacillus subtilis var. globigii spores (BG) in outdoor field scenarios. An airborne vapor monitor (AVM) ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) vapor detector was interfaced to a biological sample processing and

Aerosol particulate species of the gram-negative bacterium Erwinia herbicola (EH) were detected by stand-alone, analytical instrumentation in an outdoor western United States desert test site. The device consisted of an aerosol collector interfaced to a quartz-tube pyrolysis-gas chromatography/ion-m
The absence of a field-portable device to provide realtime detection of Gram-positive bacterial spores has prompted the interfacing of a pyrolysis (Py) module to an existing, hand-held gas-chromatography -ion-mobility spectrometry (GC/IMS) device. In this configuration, spore detection is achieved b
## Abstract Smoke plumes from cotton, paper, grass, and cigarettes and emissions from a gasoline engine were sampled using solid‐phase microextraction (SPME) and samples were analyzed for volatile organic compounds (VOC) using gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS). Chemical compositions were
A gas chromatographic method, utilizing detection by negative chemical ionization (NCI) mass spectrometry, is presented for the detection of nicotine. The method incorporates derivatization with heptafluorobutyric anhydridelpyridine to yield the ring-opened addition product, 1-[ 4-(3'-pyridyl>4-hept
